why am i barred from yahoo euchre? been playing for 8 years?

Question

playing the other night and i got booted. when i tried to get back in it said i was barred for 3 days i didnt do anything . my rating was unusually high but what up??

Answer 1

Yahoo has a burr in its britches -- it's pulled a few of my questions for no reason. Lots of sensitive folks out there. Maybe you beat someone and they were upset and "reported you". Yahoo needs a better way to balance out bogus reports like this. There's no way they can follow up on these types of reports (couldn't have enough staff) so they should just let it go.

Answer 2

perhaps you have been doing too sturdy. I unquestionably have in no way heard of that occurring on an identical time as I play. I unquestionably have only heard of that on Yahoo Q & A. i'm sorry i will't assist you to although there ought to be some way of springing up a criticism to yahoo on the subject count of this.

Answer 3

unfortunately, it's not just you.
ever since they have started supplying ads they have been having a lot of problems.
i really think that with the amount of people saying they have been banned, that they can't access game rooms, that they can't see cards, they can't see texts, etc. that it can't just be a "reporting" "user" or "computer" problem.
it's a "yahoo's changing things around & messing things up right now" thing. hopefully, really soon, it will get better...

and, unfortunately, i don't have a magic remedy for you to feel better, or to make it all better. it's just going to have to do with luck. sometimes i think some get it to work, and sometimes they don't. i hear that some people can turn off the pc, & reboot, and that helps. others turn off pop up blockers. but, the real root of the problems, obviously, comes down to yahoo's programming at this point. it can't be everyone else, right?

Answer 4

it can mean you were reported for abuse in games,truely or falsely by someone,some people use this feature just to get even for things like being booted from room or for you winning the game.or it might be a yahoo glitch, try this;log on to yahoo mail or messenger 1st then go to games. games section is having log in problems

Answer 5

Thousands are being barred Yahoo games are screwed up. I have yahoo customer care working on this for us. I will get back to you in a day or two so check back here. Thanks This is what i got back LOL: Hello,

Thank you for contacting Yahoo! Customer Care.

We appreciate you bringing this incident to our attention. Its
important to us that you have a positive experience while using Yahoo!
Games. Well be sure to look into this situation and take the
appropriate action regarding this individual.

There are many different ways you can shield yourself from abuse:

-- Profanity Filter --

If you choose to enable the profanity filter, profane words will be
replaced with an "@" symbol in the chat area. To enable this feature, go
into a game lobby and click "Options. Under the heading "Profanity
Filter, you can choose the strength of the filter -- none, weak, or
strong. "None" means no profanity filter. "Weak" catches common profane
words. "Strong" also catches clever use of dashes and underscores
between letters that would normally be missed by a filter.

-- Ignore --

Still bothered by other players? You can block their chat indefinitely
if youd like. To ignore a player, double-click their name in the list
of players. A new window will open, showing information about this
player. At the bottom of the window is a checkbox labeled "Ignore.
Simply check this box and youll no longer receive chat messages from
that player.

-- Instant Message and Invite Blocking --

You can also block instant messages and invitations. Blocking instant
messages will allow you to only receive instant messages from users on
your friends list. If receiving too many invites is becoming a nuisance,
you have the option to block all invitations from popping up on your
screen. You can choose either of these features by checking the boxes
next to these options in the game room -- where you select a table to
play.

-- Report Profile Abuse --

If youd like to report an abusive profile (either the ID itself or any
pictures in the profile), please visit:

Maybe they think you need a break after 8 years.

Make sure you haven't been using profanity in the chat, or write yahoo customer service if you think you've been wrongly blocked.

I hope this answers your question, and any points awarded would be greatly appreciated.
